Only two defining forces ever died for you:
1. Jesus Christ.
2. The American Soldier, Sailor, Airman, & Marine.
One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.

Re: Grips for model 617?

I looked at all the links that I have for grip makers and don't see any that produce grips for the compact frame. I don't own a 617, but it's on the top of my wish list. Sorry I can't be more help.

When Leonidas was preparing to make his stand, a Persian envoy arrived. The envoy explained to Leonidas the futility of trying to resist the advance of the huge Persian army and demanded that the Spartans lay down their arms. Leonidas told Xerxes "MOLON LABE", or "Come And Get Them."

Re: Grips for model 617?

Can't help but...

I think the model 445 was available with wood grips (walnut I think). The 445 is was built on the compact frame, same as the Tracker. Maybe you could find out where those grips were produced for them. It's a super slim chance but maybe the grips could still be obtainable?

I think the compact frame itself has changed over the years and that is one of the reasons aftermarket wood grips are not available.

Custom grips are available to those who are willing to shell out some coin. The cost is usually so high that it doesn't make sense to spend as much on the grips as the gun.
